<title>MAX14523A, MAX14523AL, MAX14523B, MAX14523C: Programmable current-limit switches protect host devices from faulty loads</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/6361</link>
<description>SUNNYVALE, CA&#x26;#8212;November 19, 2009&#x26;#8212;Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces the &#x3C;b&#x3E;MAX14523A/MAX14523B/MAX14523C&#x3C;/b&#x3E;, a family of adjustable current-limit switches. These overcurrent limiters offer a &#x26;plusmn;10&#x26;#37; accurate current limit that can be programmed from 250mA to 1500mA with an external resistor. The MAX14523A/B/C protect host devices against damage caused by faulty load conditions, and provide reverse-current blocking to prevent current from being dumped back into the source. These tiny devices have a very low shutdown current (0.5&#x26;micro;A), making them ideal for cell phones, MP3 players, and other battery-powered applications.</description>

<title>MAX4940, MAX4940A: Highly integrated, quad/dual digital pulsers utilize active clamping to enhance ultrasound imaging</title>
<link>http://www.maxim-ic.com/quick_view2.cfm/qv_pk/6266</link>
<description>SUNNYVALE, CA&#x26;#8212;November 12, 2009&#x26;#8212;Maxim Integrated Products (NASDAQ: MXIM) introduces the &#x3C;b&#x3E;MAX4940/MAX4940A&#x3C;/b&#x3E; quad/dual, high-voltage digital pulsers. Providing 2.0A (typ) of output current, these devices can be independently configured to enable unipolar or bipolar pulsing in high-voltage systems from low-voltage logic inputs. Two logic inputs per channel and one independent enable input ensure that the output MOSFETs are turned off to speed ramp times and minimize delays between pulsing modes. To improve image quality, these pulsers employ an innovative active-clamping architecture to reduce the 2nd harmonic output and allow complete control of each driver&#x27;s output stage. The MAX4940/MAX4940A are ideal for use in high-voltage applications, such as portable ultrasound imaging and industrial flaw detection, in which board space, power consumption, and performance are critical.&#x3C;br&#x3E;&#x3C;br&#x3E;</description>
